I will have to disagree. IHG is very much a competitor with Marriott. Just because each has chosen different things to emphasize within their respective programs doesn't mean they aren't competitors. And I wouldn't say that IHG "hates" elites. I'd say they focus their rewards program on other things than just elite benefits during a hotel stay.
